KANSAS CITY, Missouri (Ticker) -- LaDainian Tomlinson and the SanDiego Chargers picked up a rare road win over a fierce rival.

Tomlinson rushed for a pair of second-half touchdowns Sunday asthe resurgent Chargers rallied for a 24-10 victory over theKansas City Chiefs.


In winning just their second game in their last 11 tries atArrowhead Stadium, the Chargers avenged a 30-16 loss to theChiefs in San Diego September 30. It was San Diego's first roadvictory since beating the Denver Broncos, 41-3, on October 7.

"We are both pleased and excited for the mentality that our guyshad," Chargers coach Norv Turner said. "There was a mindsettoday that we were going to do whatever it took to find a way towin.


"We created turnovers, protected the football, protected thequarterback extremely well, and we ran the football."

Tomlinson rushed 23 times for 177 yards as San Diego (7-5) wonfor the sixth time in its last eight games.


"My mindset is that we have to run the ball effectively nomatter what," Tomlinson said. "And this team is good at doingthat. We want to run the ball so everything will open up onoffense."


Tomlinson's 31-yard TD run on San Diego's first possession ofthe second half broke a 10-10 tie with 12:16 left in the thirdquarter.


"They made a couple of big plays and we didn't fit the runcorrectly on a couple of them on LaDainian," Chiefs coach HermEdwards said.


"They've been waiting to get a game like that," Tomlinson saidof his offensive linemen. "They dominated at the line ofscrimmage more than they have the whole year."


The reigning NFL MVP, Tomlinson sealed the win with a 28-yardtouchdown run on 3rd-and-inches to cap the scoring with 10:15left in the game.


Tomlinson topped the 100-yard mark for the first time sincescoring four touchdowns in a 198-yard effort against Oakland onOctober 14.


"I thought that LT finished runs and I thought that he competedat an extremely strong level," Turner said. "You get in thosethird-and-ones, teams overcommit and they give you a chance tomake a big run.


"He did a good job of running the football. There were a lot ofplays where there wasn't a lot there, but he stayed with it."

Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers connected with VincentJackson for a 38-yard pass for San Diego's first touchdown,tying the score at 10-10 with 3:29 left in the second quarter.

"I thought that Vincent made a spectacular play because when theball was thrown you thought that there was no way he gets toit," Turner said. "He played it like a center fielder."

Rivers completed 10-of-21 passes for 157 yards and oneinterception.


Kansas City (4-8) suffered its fifth straight loss, matching itslongest losing streak since 2000. It was the Chiefs' fourthstraight home loss and fifth of the year, their most since 2001.

Damon Huard filled in at quarterback for the Chiefs as BrodieCroyle was out with a bruised back. Huard completed 19-of-34passes for 186 yards and one interception before leaving thegame in the fourth quarter with a hand injury.


"We made some plays today, but not enough," Huard said."Certainly when you get down in the Red Zone you've got to scoretouchdowns. That's been the story all year for us."

Kansas City quarterbacks tossed three interceptions and weresacked nine times.


The Chiefs' only touchdown came on a 2-yard pass from Huard todefensive end Jared Allen, who lined up as an eligible receiveron 3rd-and-goal. The score gave Kansas City a 10-3 lead with5:23 left in the second quarter.


Newly signed placekicker John Carney was successful on his onlyfield goal attempt in his first action for the Chiefs sincereplacing Dave Rayner, who was cut by the team on Tuesday aftermissing three of his last five field goal tries.
